This is the best installation video ever seen clear commentary and perfect action at the same time. The camera man did a good job too. Thanks
Good pace and commentary. Double extra credit for having a separate person running camera and doing close-ups, etc.
Really enjoyed this video very well explained. When I pick up my E350 I’m getting this kit.
I agree
Ok, testimonial time. This is the best install video on RUclips at this time for this install. I have a 2016 MB E350 sport (four door). While not every part of this install applies to my car, this was a great walkthrough to get the unit installed. For anyone with a car like mine, drawback number one, no usb port to install audio. I’ve tried videos on engineering mode, doesn’t work in this car. The workaround is Bluetooth audio. I set up my car play wireless and when I get in my car it connects to Bluetooth where music streams and I can make calls, I still have CarPlay on screen that can control the audio and take the calls but no usb for audio connection available in my car. Also getting the main radio back in the car is very tight. Had to press down on the cables to get a good fitment but there is still room for improvement. Enough feed back on this and I can make a short to show the finished product.
Was the best installing video I’ve ever seen 👍🏻 especially because of explaining for the other versions . Well done 👍🏻
It's just ok. I just started to watch this.. I'm only 1 min in this video.. and on this first minute it already lacks vital information. He says, release two clips.. ok I think, but how? Does one press it in (inside)? Pull it out (towards you)? Move it/press it left (sideways)? Move it/press it right (sideways)? Outwards on both sides? Inside on both sides? The problem is, specially if you are doing this alone, then you can brake something if you don't know before hand how to do this.
He spend some time to describe the obvious as you have to remove this panel.. the important part is how it is done precisely.
Ok.. I'm on the next minute and he fails to mention before hand the two clips right sides in the "glove box", he even try's to release the front panel or try to ply it off, but then figure out at last it's wrong method and correct himself by pointing out these two clips and indeed do describe very well how to release them.
At third minute he could easily mention how the first two clips work in the middle when when the front panel is off.

Best video I’ve seen in some time
On this!!
Great video and you are so professional in giving the information in depth
I have seen many videos in this regard but you video was the best 👌👌👌💯💯💯
Thank you brother for the great video again
Best video and the best explanation
Thanks for the upload
Most welcome
Great detailed video 👍🏽
Thanks for taking the time to post this video. Very well done and 5 stars for the video being really good quality and clear.
you made it sound so easy though it really isn't. Good Job !
I'm so glad, I found this video, I saved a lot of money, best video for my 2013 MB E350 , thank you so much .....
Excellent video execution by you guys. This is the best tutorial video. You have got wonderful knowledge of the parts and process. Bravo brother, keep it up 👍🎉
I just purchased a GTA car kit waiting for it to come today and then I will be watching this video to install it to my 2012 E350 Mercedes sedan. I’ll let you know how it came out once it’s done.
Awesome video!
Great video tutorial!
please tell me where you got those carbon inserts
Mate is any chance do this one for mercedes e class from uk?
brilliant video
Thanks excellent video.
Very Very nice video
Does this also work for the prefacelift Model 2009 e coupe?
Are the music controls and the phone dial numbers work with CarPlay?
I recently got a new iPhone 13 and now I always have problems connecting to CarPlay and always have to hold the command button and reset the system to get music and Siri to work. It worked flawlessly with my iPhone 8. I tried factory resetting and forgetting the Bluetooth and no changes. Any recommendations?
Is there possibility updating navigate system on mercedes e220 amg 2015 similar shown in the video
does this work for a 2014 mercedes E63 S AMG?
Very interesting. I am driving a E350. Can this kit be used for year 2011 model.
Thank you 😊
Would this work for a w212 merecedes e220 in uk
So this unit can connect wirelessly wifi or wired. So with wired I guess the only benefit is it’s also charging ok.
I know this is for W212 gen, but is it also applicable for the earlier 2010 model?
Amazing video … i wld like to know my car dnt even have aux in audio menu ! That will be a problem?
Dear bro how about the carplay wireless device? I think the device enough to connect USB
I have a 2015 E class 250 that doesn't have navigation, would this work still?
Do you guys have the touch screen version?
Could I use this for 2008 e 350?
Is this for the NTG 5.0?
Could you please share a link to buy this kit !
bro..... this is an awesome example of experienced installer.... just pay the man... do you really wanna lose a weekend to this project? hell no... this was the equivalent to brain surgery.... ;) my stomach was aching as I was the panels are coming off...
yes, there are a lot of steps, particularly because higher end luxury cars go through great pains to secure the vehicles, but there was nothing complicated. If you're not used to working on cars, I guess it can be intimidating, but like most things, with practice comes familiarity, confidence, and efficiency.

Thank you
Do you have a video install on a Mercedes AMG GT/S 2016, mine as no CarPlay.
We do not. But if you are local and have that car, please reach out to us. Thank you. info@gtacarkits.com we are looking for it for a video. Thank you.
best video
So there’s no CarPlay and Android auto already inside right
Здравствуйте, прослушал если в подлокотнике только УСБ разем а спецразема нет как в данном автомобиле?
Man what a pain in the ass 😂
Hi what about youtube we can use it ??
Does anyone know how to get the carbon fiber dash? It doesn’t look OEM but it does look good.
It's a 3M wrap
Ever have a scenario where you get this fully installed & holding down the back button just makes the factory screen unresponsive? That's happening to mine. If I hold the back button down again the same factory screen becomes responsive again.
This happened to me. I solved the problem by double checking that the "toggles" on the back of the CarPlay unit were set to the correct spec. First I had it set for a 5.8" screen, but my screen is actually 7". Then I tried to set it for 7" and it still didn't work, because I made an error putting in the correct toggle sequence. Third time was a charm!
Where are you located ?
How mach Kost thus Work?
Since CarPlay is running through Aux am I able to listen to the radio while in CarPlay mode or do I have to switch back to the radio if I want to listen to radio stations
let me guess... radio remains active regardlessly of the Audio screen being displayed...but perhaps not if AUX input is for videos 🤔
Hi, do you already have an answer to your question? I am also concerned about this.
@@AndrzejKulczewicz Change audio source to FM in COMAND and then use CarPlay- the audio will still work
@@MergersAndAcquisitions So I can hear maps directions over the FM radio? Will both audio feeds mix or I won't hear the audio from the carplay?
Assuming you need to navigate to AUX port to activate Carplay, FM radio should be automatically disabled unless the device itself has FM radio function within
Can you install on my car?
Where should I buy?
Hello, I installed such a product on my vehicle. My vehicle is 2013 W212, but there was a problem like this, the joystick round rotation does not work. Can you help me?
Oh yeah, piece of cake!
could do it blindfolded right
Excellent . Does this work for a 2014 E 350 Cabriolet?
No shit mf, it works for 2012-2016
Where are you based now? i really like how you work and i want to make same modifications on my merc e250 2014
Toronto Canada. Thank you.
Система до сих пор работает не сломалась?
does this work for the the 2010 w212 e class???
Hi, 2012+ only. Thank you.
Can you avoid the center console removal if you don't need to use the auxiliary?
Have you got an answer to this? If yes please let me know.
how can you make it work without connecting to AUX Input ???
@@glasser2819 Dies it mean that although so many wiring is used, you have to use AUX via MMI interface to make it working? No way to connect module with Comand directly?
Another disadvantage is that you lose a standard AUX connection at all for connecting any other device.
@@AndrzejKulczewicz these cars are sold around the world with DIFFERENT OPTIONS package on different software levels.
My '14 has a big media plug in the center console next to a USB that may accept the more simple USB module extension?? (right now I am dealing with issues of engine MED17.7 computer discharging AGM Batt while driving..., so I am not looking for additional problems)
it needs to be put there & than a little peice on the other side for the audio to work
I have a 2013 e350 how can I get intouch with you?
info@gtacarkits.com
Is it interior mic or exterior?
External. Thank you.
After about 3 mins I went cross-eyed and move onto Woman’s Beach Volleyball videos
I have a 2016. My car doesn’t have an aux. audio only connects via Bluetooth. I tested the usb in the center console and it only charges my device, it doesn’t stream audio. How can I get the sound to work on my model? Any insight?
Did you figure it out?
@@RF3seeker according to the dealership near me (worst people to ask) the US version of this car can’t activate the internal AUX. I’m still looking for someone that can access engineering mode in my car so I can check for myself. The way it is right now isn’t the worst thing in the world when the CarPlay connects before the Bluetooth, but I personally don’t like to do extra steps when I get in my car, so I won’t rest till it works the way it’s supposed to.
@Patrick Roland thanks for the quick reply! I'm really interested in a '16 E400 for the price and the body style is really sharp. I suppose adding Android Auto for simplifying navigation on the go is a want not a need it's a small issue but one I am dissatisfied with in my current '15 RDX.
@@RF3seeker knowing what I know now, try to get into engineering mode before installing the CarPlay android auto device. The CarPlay is highly used for navigation and it’s worth it for that alone. The car is a dream. Make sure you get a 4matic, it drives better even if you don’t get snow where you are. It’s expensive to fill up the tank, but it last a long time. And if you can, make sure your car has the adaptive headlights, it’s crazy expensive to add them on at a later time
Hi, is it possible to use the existing microphone system in the Mercedes when making voice calls over bluetooth audio using the apple play car kit? or is it necessary to use the mic that comes with this kit?
I think the company updated the kit since this video was filmed. Mine did not come with a mic at all and siri/calls/etc all work just fine with the Mercedes mic
@@thebioniclimb Thanks for this information! if I want to order the latest version, where can I find that product? thanks!
@@thebioniclimb what year is you e class? Trying to figure out how to set up the audio in my 2016
Where do I get the kit to do that?
best price is on e bay
Do u charge for install. If so where r u located
Toronto, Canada. If you are local, then email us for a quote for installation info@gtacakits.com
Are you in Palm Beach County I would pay you to do that to my car I’m serious
Please dos your system sound is harmed garden
Hi, Yes Harmon Kardon system is supported by our product. Thank you
Everything about the video is great except for the AUX routing. You do NOT need to remove the center console and plug in the aux cord. You can enable internal AUX through the engineering mode in comand. This information is backed up by hours of research on mbworld. Your videos is false on that part. All you need to do is enable internal aux. no aux cord routing needed.
I installed in my 2014 E350 convertible. When i engage the reverse, the camera comes on for a second and the unit clicks off. When i engage system in audio to AUX the system clicks off. When i dial on the car phone it works, but no audio via speakers. ANY Suggestions or guidance of what to do to address these situations? I have the entire car apart still. ALSO radio doesn't play sound either.
"Internal AUX" menu option togled ON... Where do you plug in then to route through to head display & sound????
Please include instructions on this so I can figure it out cause I am trying to avoid the have to run a cable to the aux.
@@glasser2819 you dont need to plug anything else.
What year is your car? Having a tough time getting into the engineering mode.
You don’t have rout the AUX cable to the center council. Just use the cars original Bluetooth 👍🏻. Audio quality is great since I am still using the original Bluetooth and I could still play music and answer phone calls from car play 😁
Can you please explain what happens if you want to use voice directions when using google maps with the car play and listen to FM from the car's receiver? Do both audio feeds mix or one of them will be missing?
@@speedermarto I think one of them will be missing but I am not sure as the voice directions is always off on my navigation cause I don’t like it.
Bluetooth sound quality is substantially worse than wired. If you're going to the trouble, give yourself the best audio quality you can
@@dpfefferbaum not if you’re using the original Bluetooth
@@basilqasrawi3494 Hey! Sorry if my question is kinda dumb, but the way you do it is by having the phone connected to the Android Auto/Carplay module via Wifi but still have the normal Bluetooth connection between car and phone, did I get that right? Do the skip-track-buttons in the middle work this way? Do the phone controls work on the steering wheel work? Does the phone output the Google Maps instructions via BT>Car stereo, too?
Thanks in advance!
Great video, but way too much work for CarPlay.
Damn $550
With all these disassembled parts, CarPlay is definitivly no longer worth it
Why does nobody show these working on android auto. The whole world doesnt only own iphones
How dare you using an Android phone, if you're a Mercedes E class owner? 😂
@@MrR5000 a Higher end android maybe?
@@DanielHernandez-lr1yx Absolutely. Android anytime anywhere over iPhone
It will work with Android Auto, but by wire only (wireless is beta). Sorry for not showing it, Android phone was used to film this video haha, thank you.
Также и на андроиде
would it work woth 2010 e220 estate?
